Hoarding and Decluttering

6:00 pm, Tuesday, May 9

Compulsive hoarding is the excessive acquisition of possessions, even
if the items are worthless, hazardous, or unsanitary. Compulsive
hoarding impairs mobility and interferes with basic activities,
including cooking, cleaning, showering, and sleeping. It can take over
your life and make you feel like you are out of control. Millions of
people suffer from the frustration and embarrassment that this can
cause. The symptoms vary from individual to individual, but anyone who
feels that they need help more than they need to keep the clutter can
get help beating the problem. Terrence Shulman has dedicated his life to
helping people overcome their addictive behaviors and his program might
just be the answer you've been looking for.
